  Dr. Matthew Shany, DVM, Practice Owner 
   Matt has always wanted to work with animals and dreamed of  becoming a veterinarian since he was a child.  He started his journey at Chinguacousy Animal Farm in Brampton.  He was  then accepted into Ontario Veterinary College in 1995, and graduated in 1999.
   He went on to practice mixed animal medicine up north in Markdale and Midland area for 2 years, but his heart truly belonged to companion animals, beloved dogs and cats.  Matt went on to work in Mississauga at a small animal practice, being in love with Guelph area where he went to school he moved his career into Kitchener/Waterloo.
   Dr. Shany has a really keen interest in surgery and dentistry.  Clients love the way he handles their pets and makes them feel really comfortable.  He does have a very special spot for cats we call him the Cat Whisper.  Currently he has 2 Devon Rex's "Kevin" and "Neville"  known as "Kevin the Devon" and "Neville the Devil".  We also have our beloved  French Bulldog "Beau" who is full of personality and is known for his Bulldog dancing.  Matt see's lots of French Bulldogs and is also know as the "Frenchie Whisper"
